The Lord’s commands to His people are not arbitrary appointments; but that, so far as they are conscientiously complied with, they have an evident tendency and suitableness to promote our own advantage. He requires us to acknowledge Him…for our own sakes; not because He has need of our poor services, but because we have need of His blessing, and without the influence of His grace (which is promised to all who seek it) are sure to be unhappy in ourselves and in all our connections.

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat 1/2 tablespoon of the oil in a saucepan on a moderate heat. Add the
shallots and cook for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add the vermouth and reduce
its volume by half, this will take approximately 2 minutes.
Add the cream and reduce the liquid until it coats the back of a spoon. Add
seasoning to taste. Remove the sauce from the heat.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a frying pan and add the mushrooms. Cook
lightly for 2-3 minutes so that they retain their shape and texture. Remove
them from the pan.
Add the remaining oil to the pan and when the oil is hot , season the
steaks with salt and freshly ground black pepper and fry them for 2-3
minutes on each side, a little longer if you prefer your steaks well done.
Add the mushrooms to the sauce and reheat the sauce for 1-2 minutes over a
low heat with the mushrooms.
To serve pour the sauce over the stalks and sprinkle with the chives.
